Violet is my top girl's name right now, and has been for quite some time! I adore it, though I fear it's becoming too popular in the UK. My only associations with the name are positive - Violet from the Incredible and Violet Baudelaire from A Series of Unfortunate Events; I imagine a girl named Violet as a mix of those two characters.
